+This is release 0.9.3 of SafeKeep, a centralized and easy to use 
 backup application that combines the best features of a mirror 
 and an incremental backup.
 
 What's new in this release:
-  - Client configuration files have been moved to 
-    /etc/safekeep/backup.d, and have the extension '.backup';
-  - A new global configuration file has been added in 
-    /etc/safekeep/safekeep.conf;
-  - A number of command line options have been deprecated;
-    (-e/--email, -s/--smtp), and moved to the global configuration.
-  - SafeKeep now knows of the user under which the backup will execute,
-    making it possible to better deploy keys, avoid the need to invoke
-    safekeep(1) via sudo(8), and execute the backup as root if need be;
-  - Relative paths now have more intuitive behaviour;
-  - Some documentation improvements;
-  - Automatic migration of old configuration to the new format;
-  - A CRITICAL (e.g. data loss) race has been fixed.
+  - The safekeep account now uses /bin/bash instead of /sbin/nologin,
+    this makes it possbile to deploy and manage the SSH keys needed
+    for the backup process;
+  - Invoke rdiff-backup with the '--force' option when trimming
+    old data, since there are cases where we can have multiple
+    deltas outstanding;
+  - A number of logging bugs have been fixed, now the logs should
+    look a bit better;
+  - Some documentation improvements.
